Just recently I have noticed that whenever I unplug headphones from the audio jack, the media volume goes all the way down and I have to manually raise it. Anyone have any ideas/solutions for this?

Are you using a sense rom or cyanogenmod? On sense rom it does that to me as well, but if you use cm6 or 7 go to dsp manager and edit the headphones settings and it saves your preferences. Also try adjusting the volume settings in the sound settings instead of using the volume keys. I think this is what you're asking about.

I am using MikFroYo 4.4. The thing is, this started roughly a week ago. Prior, I have had no volume issues whatsoever.

Per chance might the quality of your headphones be dying? Or potentially a dirty jack?
Well, the thing is, it isn't when I am using the headphones. It is after I unplug them and use the built in speaker. For example, I use the aux in on my car stereo to listen to music on my way to work. When I unplug the Evo once I get to work, the media volume has essentially muted itself and I have to manually raise it.

Well if you're using a Cyanogen mod, check you sound settings in settings>cyanogenmod settings>sound
and check for the "when headset" in parameters, seems as if that may be the issue. The db could be altered via headphones in or out.
Well, I am using Mikfroyo 4.4, so I don't have that option.

Talking on the phone practically makes my ears bleed it is so LOUD. Does anyone know of an app that allows you to lower the volume beyond what the normal settings allow for? Is there any other way to accomplish this task? Voodoo sound doesnt seem to make any difference on call volume, even when I am using headphones on the call. Thanks!

Open the voodoo app and check recording presets

I think that controls the mic gain, not the earpiece.

I have always been able to adjust the call volume via the side volume controls, when in a call
Ie: when on a call, turn the volume down the same way you would the ringer using the side buttons, and instead of seeing the media volume change, you should see incall volume adjusted

Yeah I do that but even at the lowest setting it is obnoxiously loud.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
maybe your ears are just overly sensitive or something is messed up on your phone, rom, kernel, something... wipe and fresh flash see if your problem persists. I can turn the volume down below my level of hearing, but I also have slightly damaged ears from too much gun-play without hearing protection.
I would love to know why its loud.....cause i want to make mine louder....i think im going deaf

Switching to CM7 seems to have fixed the issue somewhat though the volume controls in call are a bit eratic now. I am pretty sure it was rom related as it happened to me on 2 of marcusant's roms. Maybe he likes loud calls lol.

Try the volume+ app in the market. He has free and paid versions but you can get the paid verszion for free on his website.

I believe the fix that worked for me was to disable hifi record in the voodoo control settings. Hope this helps!
Record settings in voodoo seem only to control mic gain (or mic loss, when I enable them no one can hear me! ). My earpiece is also obnoxiously loud in calls- on every GB rom I have tried. I would definitely like a fix for this.
No amount of wiping and flashing between multiple GB roms has ever fixed this.

disabling the Voodoo hi-fi play and record settings definitely fixed the loud call audio problem for me in gingerbread on the epic, sorry it's not working for you.

I just got the HTC A100 for my S3 and it sounds pretty darn good! I'm not 100% sure if it's streaming in apt-x audio, i'm assuming it is? Good bass and treble, definitely worth $50. It's so nice to worry about just 1 cable to connect to the phone too, looks clean on my dashboard.

Does phone calls go through it as well or just music and GPS? I am wanting to get it but I want it to do every thing my cord does.

No unfortunately phone calls don't go through the speakers, you have to answer it like normal usage but I also have it paired with Bluetooth headset I use in car so it wasn't a big problem for me. In most case phone's paired with built in car Bluetooth anyways so it works fine that way too.

Do you have to connect it every time you get in the car or does it automatically connect and if you take a phone call does the music stop and start back up after? Is there any thing you really like or hate about it? Thank you in advance. I would just go buy one and try all this out myself but there is not a store here that has them.

It has built in automatic shut off to save battery life when not in use, once it's turned off automatically or manually by pressing the control button till red light blink once, you have to press the button again to turn it on and it will pair with your device. When you get a phone call music stops and plays back after the phone call. So far I don't think I find anything negative. It's very compact, good battery hours and sounds good, if there is one thing, I wish I could check how much battery life is left. Only notification is when the battery is low red led light turns on.

Almost everytime i plug headphones into my Galaxy S III, no sound plays into them. What i noticed, is that when i try to turn up the volume, the little sound icon that is next to the volume bar, has a slash through it. I have tried every combination of sound setting (that i know of) and the only way to fix it is a restart. This is VERY annoying so if anyone has any thoughts or help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Are you using any sound app?

I've had that slash through the sound icon as well. But I was still getting sound through my headphones.. but you were saying how you get no sound at all coming out of both headphones if they are plugged in as well as the speaker phone?

Try changing the SoundAlive setting in Music Player.
Also try changing these:
Settings > Accessory > Audio Output and Audio Applications.
Settings > Accessibility > Mono Audio
Have you tried different headphones? How about the ones which came with the S3?

Well if the stock ones work then it sounds like the problem may be with the earphones you are using. Can you try them in another phone? (Preferably another s3) are they older earphones? If so it could be the cord is worn where it connects to the plug.

So I plugged in my headphones and the right earpiece is not working. I thought that the headphones were broken, then I tried it with my iPod and it works perfectly. I tried restarting the phone, I also checked all settings regarding sound including the sound balance on the accessibility settings but all of them are in correct settings. I tried using 3 different headphones but the output is the same, no sound on right earpiece.
After a day I tried it again. The right earpiece is now working but with uneven sound. The volume is low more like 50% of the volume.
Today the right earpiece is not working again. I tried plugging my phone to my desktop speaker and it's the same, the right speaker volume is so low while the left is working 100% fine. It seems that the right piece volume is so low that you can't hear it on the headphones.

Literally the most annoying thing in the world - whenever I put my phone in my pocket, it'll usually unplug for a second, pause my music, change the media volume, then replay my music. This happens with all of my headphones, with my AUX cable, even with the headset blocker app.
Basixally the headphone jack is extremely sensitive. Is this just me? Is my phone defective?

Do you have any kind of sound manager such as DSP manager/Beats/VooDoo?
Been happening to me too im thinking its because I have walkman app and regular samsung music player. If you have 2 music players try deleting one and see if that helps. Im on jedi rom btw.
